GUARDING AGAINST TROUBLE.

Concentration of Government Troops
Near the City of Chicago.
copyriga 1887, by The California associated Press.i
WASHINGTON, November 2d.-[Special. i
Two companies of the Sixth Infantry have
been ordered to the new military reserva-
tlon near Chicago, from Fort Douglas, at
Salt Lake City. Major VIM. J. Lyster, of
the Sixth Infantry, has been ordered to the
command of the post. No other troops
will be ordered there for the present. The
object OF garrisoning the post at this time
is that the Government property NAV be
guarded and protected during the winter.
and that troops may be on hand to begin
work early in the spring.
READY TO QUELL DISORDER.
|. The troops will be available in case
there should be any riots in Chicago but it
is stated at the War Department that this
is not the primary reason for ordering the
troops there at present. The new reserva-
ton is between twenty and twenty-five
miles from Chicago, and contains about
six hundred and forty acres. 1t is about
three times as long as it is wide.

shore. The Chicago and Northwestern
railroad runs along one corner of it, so
that troops can be readily moved. There
is no money available for improving the
reservation, as Congress has as yet only

the Government. 1t is expected that an
appropriation will be made at the coming
session of Congress for the erection of build.
ings. of which there are none ON the land
at present.
TEMPORARY QUARTERS.
Near the reservation, there is an inn, and
| there are several farm houses in the neigh
borhood, at which the officers can probably
secure quarters for the winter. The troops
will have to be quartered in tents. but they
will be foored, will have stoves, and will
probably be banked with earth to keep out
the cold, and it is expected that they will
be thoroughly comfortable for the winter.

Ex-Governor Palmer's Opinion.

CHICAGO, November I'd. - Ex- Governor
Palmer this morning said to reporter that
he did not believe Governor Oglesby would
interfere with the execution of the Courts
sentence upon the condemned men. 1.-The
highest Court in the land" said Governor
Palmer, has decreed this verdict a lust
one. Governor Oglesby is not going to be
swerved i'll his manifest duty by any trifiing
consideration. So far as the idea of its be-
ing inhuman to hang these men, can see
no sense in that. They killed several po-
licemen, didn't they? And they wounded
many more. Was that humanity ?"

BISMARCK Dakota) November I'd
There has been considerable excitement
among the settlers and in military circles
over the report that the Sioux and Crow
Indians were about to unite and take to the
warpath. If the Governor insists on enforc-
ing the Land Severalty Act. A council was
held by Sioux Chiefs at Standing Rock to-
day, called to consider the question. All
the principal Chiefs expressed their opinion
freely, among them Hunting Antelope,
John Grass, Mad Deer. Red Fish, Cotton
wood and Gall. The last named is the
| most intelligent and influential Chief in
the tribe. All but Gall said they had al
ways felt friendly towards the whites.
TYPICAL INDIAN SPEECH.
Gall arose with a scowl of contempt, and
said he would talk differently. He had not
always felt friendly to the whites. He had
fought them and tried to kill them. The
whites and Crows fought him at the Custer
battle and tried to kill him, but now he is
ready to take his men
AND HELP THE WHITES
In settling this difficulty with the Crows.
He should like to show the whites his
friendly feeling. Gall then turned to Major
Mclaughlin, Indian Agent of Standing
Rock, and expressed the utmost confidence
in him and friendship toward the whites
Gall was frequently interrupted by the ap-
plause of his followers, who constituted a
majority of the young warriors.
SITTING BULL JEALOUS.
Sitting Bull had nothing to say. He is
very jealous of Calls power, and it is said
was displeased with his speech as he fears
it will give him additional prominence
with the whites.

No Likelihood that the Governor VIII
Intefere In the Case.

SPRINeFIELD, (Iil.), November 2d.-There
is absolutely nothing to be said as to the
probable action of the Governor in the
condemned Anarchists case, as his Ex-
cellency declines to say ANYTHING on the
subject. The decision of the United States
Supreme Court was made known to him
shortly before noon to-day, and his features
at once assumed an expression of real
gravity. He received number of letters
and petitions on the subject to-day, and it
is asserted that three Chicago ladies visited
him In the interest of the condemned men,
The feeling is almost universal here that
he Will not interfere with the sentence of
the Court, and that the conditions are such
that he cannot. There is bare possibility
that he may interpose clemency in the in
sserest of Fielden and Schwab though he
has not said anything to indicate even this.

considerable doubts as to whether Jeffer-

at Beauvoir, Miss, alive. His condition,
to say the least, is extremely precarious.
For several years he has been troubled with
serious affection of the heart and the ex-
citement of the last week served only to
aggravate his ailment Since last Saturday
he has been confined to his bed, and ply
sician has been in daily attendance.
Mr.. Davis has spoken but little since
Saturday. and has taken bat little nourish-
ment. DR.. Mediation, the attending ply
sician, expresses great fears OF his inability
to leave the city On Thursday, as was ar
ranged before his visit. It is understood
that his daughters, who are guests of the
city of Macon, have been summoned to
their fathers side. The end is expected at
any moment.
